Studiopatro Tea Towels featured in Better Homes and Gardens

Posted on November 01, 2014 | 0 Comments

We were so excited to see that the Oak Leaf tea towel from Studiopatro in our Fall Just Because collection is featured in the October edition of Better Homes and Gardens. The tea towel adds such a festive touch of fall to our tablescape this season.

Our traditional Just Because gift makes a lovely gift for thinking of you, thank you, get well, good luck, birthday, or any reason simply Just Because. In addition to the tea towel, we've included Kirimashi Air Parfum Crema from Library of Flowers, What Would You Do Conversation Starters from TableTopics, and Chocolate Chip Cookies from Eleni's New York.

Cheer Up with Milk and Cookies for National Cookie Month

Posted on October 30, 2014 | 0 Comments

Cheers to the Royals on an incredible season! We're cheering ourselves up today with Eleni's Beyond Butterscotch cookies, available in our Fall Love collection.

Although we are lifelong fans of the Royals, we do have some love for San Francisco too. After all, two of our most popular gifts are from the City by the Bay. The bkr water bottles that are included in our Summer collection (Love and Just Because are still available!) and the Studiopatro tea towels in our current Fall collection are just two of the products that we love from SF. 

Since October is nearing to a close, it means two things for the VelvetCrate blog: 1. Our Royals posts will be coming to a close for the season, and 2. It's the end of National Cookie Month.

Cheer Up! We have no doubt Kansas City will be playing baseball in October again, and we have plenty of Eleni's still in stock in our Fall collection
